[c-nsp] Multicast over VPLS

[alaerte.vidali at nsn.com]

Hi,

Any information about what draft Cisco is considering/will adopt to
solve bandwidth waste issue with Multicast over VPLS?

Besides standard, do you see any solution currently available to avoid
PE to send several flows of the same multicast over a single link on
ring topology?


Topology:

VPLS between R2/R3/R4/R5
                                   user     user
                                     |       |
Multicast_Server------R1-----R2-----R3-----R4----R5
                                                
By default, R2 will send 3 times the same flow on link R2---R3.

Tks a lot,
Alaerte
